Florida's 2026 Healthcare Tipping Point

1.5 Million Floridians Are at Risk of Losing Health Coverage.

The scheduled end of enhanced federal ACA subsidies on December 31, 2025, threatens to create an unprecedented affordability crisis in Florida. Understand what's at stake and how you can help.

What's at Stake: The End of Enhanced Subsidies

Two key protections that made healthcare affordable are set to expire.

The "Subsidy Cliff" Returns

Currently, no one pays more than 8.5% of their income for a benchmark plan. In 2026, anyone earning over 400% FPL (~$60k for an individual) will lose all financial aid.

Reduced Help for Lower Incomes

Enhanced subsidies that made plans $0/month for many low-income Floridians will be drastically reduced, making essential coverage unaffordable.

A Tidal Wave of Coverage Loss in Florida

The numbers are staggering. Without action, Florida faces a catastrophic healthcare crisis driven by skyrocketing costs.
